Winning trainer Palussiere said afterwards, "That was nice for the owner, I'm delighted for him he deserved a bit of luck. We knew she would like the ground but I thought the 4 year old penalty might be against her so we were just hoping. She surprised me but surprised me in a good way. We will review our plans and see what we'll do next."
